That's it. Closing time. Thanks to everyone.

Wow. Three days packed with bright vibes, sunshine and all them busy bees are done. We're not gonna bore anyone with statistics and numbers, all we can say: we are so, so happy with all of it. The feedback of our beloved exhibitors and visitors was incredible and made us feel like: yeah, it was was worth it heading towards this new bright era. Berlin loves Bright and Bright loves Berlin -  the beginning of a long-lasting, deep and intense relationship. Thank you, buddies and friends - without every single one of you it would have never been possible to transfer this unique vibe and atmosphere from Frankfurt to Berlin. But you did. Thanks, guys! See ya in winter...and hey: the heatings gonna work, that's for sure.
AND: special thanks to Thomas, Marco and the BRIGHT TEAM who made this all possible. And Rufus "Homie" Exton, our blog photographer - it was such a pleasure working with you again.
Have a save trip home!

In the name of Art Bright

Proud and successful (we admit even kinda showing off) we feel like when we step on our extended Art Bright area on the 3rd floor of Stasi headquarter. With more than 16 artists from all over the world this year there is a selection of finest in Urban Art and publishers at Bright Tradeshow. Galleries like Arty Farty from Cologne, Westberlin Gallery from Berlin and Basementizd from Heilbronn, Label'n'Art collabs with Emil Kusac x Element and Lamono x Ambigious or our friends of Fauxami presenting their incredible retrospective "Freaks of Nature" with some of the craziest shit you've ever seen in the history of skateboarding. It's more than worth it having a relaxed walk in this arty atmosphere, you should definately check this out! And all we can say - this is just a beginning of a new Art Bright Era to come - we really enjoy to amend Bright Tradeshow with more arts in the future. Feel inspired and step by!        









Bright BBQ and a monstrous Monster Party extraordinaire

Being invited by our Bright hosts Thomas Martini and Marco Aslim for having dinner with all exhibitors is always so, so nice. Drinking, chatting und eating - what else do you need after a hot day with a bunch of orders, networking and client talks?! This years location was the Bright Bar at Fleischerei in the party-busiest street in Mitte these days : Torstraße. With burgers, corn cobs and a big BBQ the bright family was hanging out in the backyard. And the Makia party bus came up right in front of the Bright Bar and improved it to the max to party on all night. Next station was the Extraordinaire Experience Party by Monster Magazine at Cassiopeia near the skate hall in Friedrichshain. Packed with people it was just the best idea to hang until the next morning....the guestlist was kind a impressive with some of the coolest dudes you can think of from Eric Koston, P Rod, JB and Woody from Sneaker Freaker - just to drop a few who just came by to check the Bright Vibe in a lukewarm summer night in Berlin. Well, mission completed - a night packed with fun and  a few drinks...just a few. promised.
